Arrow Tesla Roadster, so who else is impressed with this besides me?

I gotta say, 0-60 under 4secs, no gas, all electric, 200+ mile range, what's not to like?

what's not to like is the fact that they have hundreds of orders and they've only been able to build less than a handful of working cars so far.

I mean if you're in the market for a $100k sports car, it makes a lot of sense, just not that pretty. EDIT: and what steve said.

It's applaudable though that they won't charge a premium over MSRP. Now as for the product itself, of course it crushes a Prius in every respect but I wonder how well the batteries will stand the test of time.
